Watch Straps And Fitting
Each of our 17 branches offer bracelet adjustments on all watches. Simply bring in your watch and one of our friendly staff will be more than happy to fit the watch to you on the day.
Gasket Replacement
These watch gaskets are made of specialty rubber or neoprene, and sometimes from plastic for crystals. Watches have gaskets because they protect your watch from things like dust, water, perfume, oils, dirt, and other residues that wristwatches and pocket watches are exposed to.

Watch Engraving
There are many reasons why people choose to have a watch or piece of jewellery engraved. Watch engraving can be used to mark a special occasion, personalise a gift and even provide proof of ownership. Here at Watch Repair Shop we offers a premium and exclusive Watch Engraving Service.
Ultrasonic Cleaning
While ultrasonic cleaning is highly effective for watches are also precision instruments as well as decorative accessories. Some watches that are advertised as being “waterproof” or “shockproof” may still suffer some damage due to the vibrations and solutions in an ultrasonic cleaner. With this in mind, many luxury watch manufacturers recommend that the watch be disassembled and the parts placed in the tub, rather than inserting the intact timepiece into the tub.
Resealing & Pressure Testing
Water resistant watches have been manufactured to strict standards in order to keep it working underwater. Watches need to be resealed at every entry point after repair, including at the crown (winder), glass, caseback and pushers (for multifunction watches) to prevent any dust or water from entering.

Regulate & Adjust Watch Movement & Accuracy
All you ever wanted to know about regulating your watch yourself…and why you wished you hadn’t asked… Regulating a mechanical watch means making it run slightly faster or slower, by making a small change in the effective length of the balance hairspring.

Watch Crystal Fitting & Replacement
As the window to your timepiece, the watch crystal takes some of the hardest hits, and the brunt of the everyday wear and tear. To extend the life of your watch crystal, crystals are made of different materials to ensure different kinds of strength. Plastic crystals are the most flexible of all the watch crystals, and therefore are used in a wide range of watches. Glass crystals are also common in watches.
Watch Case & Bracelet Polishing
A watchmaker’s work is often left unappreciated as it is hidden inside the case. The fact that the watch is keeping time and functioning as it should are the only outside indicators of a well serviced watch. When studying to become a watchmaker we were often told the mantra that “you can’t see a good watchmaker’s work”; meaning that the work should be so clean and precise that there’s no evidence of any intervention.
